My problem is my ISP has a pppoe client(only for windows) which forbids the use of VPN/proxx to share Internet connection.
My friend cracked its encryption algorithm so we are able to build a new client on our own(linux/windows), and it’s been working well for 1 year now.
However, my ISP changed its pppoe client this year, our algorithm still works, but the connection will be closed every few minutes, so we have to use the ISP’s client again.
I start using Wireshark to capture packets, hoping to find some kind of a “heart beat” protocol, but the weird thing is once I started capturing packets, the connection was never closed.
So, I am wondering, does Wireshark sends or receives any additional packets when it’s capturing that make my connection never closed by my ISP?
If not, what could be the reason for the weird thing happened above?
WIreshark captures packets. It doesn’t send them.
I am unable to help you with your task of defrauding your ISP.
